Then things that weren't acceptable by people who can't think of priorities in a large system would be left aside. The point of voting in representatives is you vote in people who can have a better idea of what is needed in various areas.

Mean that's not always the case but way better than Joe Blow deciding all his taxes go to the military rather than education.

Mean I see the appeal but that voting has to come from informed voters with proper reasoning skills. Since we're in an age of propoganda nothing essential would ever be funded, people are too easily swayed.

I know it’s just theories, but I wish I was a much better writer. I don’t know reading this I has this idea of a dystopian world where we get something like this, with technology people would be able to decide where there tax goes, at first would be considered really democratic, but people holding more money would have much more influence where money goes, more than today… and the class would be even more accentuated
